Here in Vancouver you can never have too many pairs of boots or warm winter coats. I found this cocoon coat at Front & Co. on Main Street a few weeks ago and absolutely love it! The cocoon shape is unlike anything else in my wardrobe & I feel so vintage glam everytime I wear it. I tested out some purple lipstick this time. Lip colour is my new obsession!

The shape of the coat is much like this one Rachel Zoe is rocking...I die!

I bought this dress back in August and justified my purchase by saying I'd save it until my birthday. There was one close call when I insisted I had absolutely NOTHING else to wear except this dress, but I kept my promise and saved it for such a special occasion. I can't stand scrambling around shopping for "the perfect dress". It was so much easier having one all ready to go in my closet!

The dress is from Barefoot Contessa (Main St & Commercial Drive) paired with red lips, dark purple nails, simple diamond earrings, & a butterfly ring from Forever 21. The next time you want to go out dancing in Vancouver, I highly recommend Fortune Sound Club. It is a great venue...exactly the kind of club this city was in desperate need of.

It remains a mystery why alcohol makes me think that making ridiculous faces will translate well in photos?!

Last night I went to see Coco Avant Chanel and was completely inspired to "channel my inner Chanel". I took my outfit today back to basics in a black dress, flat shoes, and classic pearls. Now if only I could wear this in Paris!
